Procedure

MeCN (231 mg, 5.62 mmol, 1.0 Eq.) was added to a suspension of NaH (225 mg, 60% dispersion in mineral oil, 5.62 mmol, 1.0 Eq.) in anhydrous dioxane (30 mL) at ambient temperature under nitrogen. After stirring for 25 minutes 3-[1-(2-Chlorophenyl)-ethoxy]-thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester (1.94 g, 5.62 mmol, 1.0 Eq.) was added and the reaction heated at reflux overnight. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature, quenched with water and partitioned between EtOAc (100 mL) and brine (100 mL). The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×50 mL) and the combined organic extracts dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (50% EtOAc/Petroleum ether) to give the sub-title compound as a white solid (115 mg, 0.32 mmol, 6%); 1H NMR (400 MHz, d-6 DMSO) δ 1.61 (3H, d), 3.82 (3H, s), 4.62-4.74 (2H, m). 5.88 (1H, q), 7.35 (1H, t), 7.40 (1H, t), 7.48 (1H, d), 7.73 (1H, d), 7.91 (1H, s).
